A. SAFETY
Throughout this manual, you will see notes labeled DANGER, WARNING,
CAUTION and NOTICE to alert you to special instructions or precautions
concerning a particular procedure that would be hazardous if performed
incorrectly or carelessly.
Observe them carefully!
These safety alerts alone cannot eliminate all hazards. Strict compliance
with these special instructions and common sense are major accident
prevention measures.
DANGER
Immediate hazards that will result
in severe injury or death.
WARNING
Hazards or unsafe practices that
could result in severe personal
injury or death.
CAUTION
Hazards or unsafe practices that
could result in minor injury or
product or property damage.
NOTICE
Information that is important to
proper installation or maintenance,
but is not hazard-related.
SECTION A. SAFETY A-1

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
WARNING Exhaust
Inhalation of exhaust gas (containing carbon monoxide) may cause severe personal
injury and/or death. Anyone suspected of suffering from CO inhalation should be
removed from the hazardous area and given medical assistance immediately.
WARNING Explosion Hazard

Do not operate heater where combustible fumes or airborne particles, such as
sawdust, are present.
WARNING Fuel
Exercise extreme caution when working near fuel or fuel-filled equipment. Do
not operate heater during fueling operations. In addition, do not smoke or
handle open flame equipment, such as a blowtorch, around fuel.
WARNING Fire Hazard

Do not place any flammable items around the heater and exhaust pipe.
WARNING Batteries
Wear hand and eye protection when working near batteries. Do not smoke or
use open flames near batteries.
WARNING Electrical
Electric shock can cause severe personal injury, burns, and death. Before
working on any unit, disconnect the batteries. Use only approved materials and
methods when working on the electrical system and follow local electrical codes.
Never work with electricity in wet conditions or when you are feeling fatigued.
WARNING Poisons/Toxins
Fuel and coolant are toxic and in some cases, carcinogenic. Wear eye and hand
protection at all times. Remove contaminated clothing immediately and wash
contaminated skin. Do not breathe in vapors.
WARNING Moving/Hot Parts

Moving/hot parts can cause severe injury and or death. Before working on any
unit, shut it off. Do not operate any unit until protective covers have been
replaced. Always ensure bolts and clamps are correctly torqued and secured.
Inspect mechanical components periodically for damage and corrosion.
WARNING Coolant
Never remove the filler cap when the engine is hot – escaping steam or scalding
water could cause serious personal injury. The coolant level in the expansion
tank should be checked at least weekly (more frequently in high mileage or arduous
conditions). Always check the level when the system is cold. Unscrew the filler
cap slowly, allowing the pressure to escape before removing completely. Never
run the engine without coolant.
Prevent anti-freeze coming in contact with the skin or eyes. If this occurs, rinse
immediately with plenty of water. Anti-freeze will damage painted surfaces.
Never top-up with salt water. Even when travelling in territories where the water supply
contains salt, always ensure you carry a supply of fresh (rain or distilled) water.
DANGER California Proposition 65 Warning

Do not operate heater in garages or in other closed or unventilated areas.
Diesel exhaust and some of its constituents are known to the State of California
to cause cancer, birth defects, and other reproductive harm.
Electrical components in this product may contain lead, a chemical known to the
State of California to cause cancer and birth defects and other reproductive harm.
A-2 PROHEAT X30 INSTALLATION & SERVICE MANUAL

B. INTRODUCTION
PROHEAT Model X30
This manual is provided to assist authorized PROHEAT dealers install and

service PROHEAT X30 heaters. The X30 can be configured for a variety of
applications and for either 12V or 24V power supply.
Please refer to the X30 Parts Book at www.proheat.com for detailed part
descriptions and part numbers. The parts book also provides information on
optional equipment, such as timers, sleeper fan control kit, impact switch (for
school bus applications), and associated installation and maintenance tools.
B.1 HEATER APPLICATIONS

Although trucks have been used in the examples, PROHEAT heaters are
designed to be used on any diesel-equipped vehicle including trucks, buses
(school, transit, and coach), construction equipment, off road equipment,
military equipment, and cargo carriers.
PROHEAT heaters can be used in a variety of applications including:
Engine block heat – PROHEAT will preheat an engine block to ensure reliable
starting in cold weather. When used throughout the year, it helps to reduce
the wear associated with cold starts.
SECTION B. INTRODUCTION B-1

Cab or sleeper heat (with the engine off) – PROHEAT will supply heat to a
vehicle cab or sleeper so drivers can sleep in comfort during cold weather
without idling the engine, which reduces fuel consumption.
Supplemental heat (with the engine running) – as the efficiency of modern
diesel engines improves, there is less reject heat available to heat the vehicle’s
interior, particularly for buses. PROHEAT can be used while the vehicle is
operating to provide supplemental heat for the vehicle interior and to maintain
optimum engine temperature.
Cargo heat – PROHEAT can be used to provide heat to protect valuable cargo,
such as produce or beverages, from damage due to freezing.
Marine applications – Marine applications typically involve the engineering and
installation of a complete hot-water heating system of which PROHEAT is one
component. PROHEAT recommends that only an expert in marine hot-water
heating systems install a PROHEAT on a boat. The installer is responsible for
ensuring that the installation complies with all applicable regulations.

2.2.3 Mounting Heater Without Enclosure
Heaters supplied without an enclosure need to mounted in a protected area
NOTICE or be mounted in an existing enclosure on the vehicle, such as a tool box.
Heater supplied with an auxiliary mounting plate.
Use anti-seize compound on fasteners
to prevent galling and corrosion. When mounting the heater without an enclosure select a location that is away
from road derbies, direct road spray and areas that collect dirt and grease.
Use a mud flap or simulare to protect the heater if needed.

2.6.3 HEATER MODES

NOTICE The X30 has four basic modes of operation:
There are special OEM versions for
supplemental heat mode. For example, Standard Mode
temperature thresholds may have a (Engine OFF or RUNNING) (Pre wired for included switch or optional T-II Timer)
low threshold of 160°F (71°C) rather Coolant temperature is monitored via a built-in sensor. When the temperature at

PROHEAT Technical Support for more to 185°F (85°C) at which point it stops burning fuel and goes into standby with
information. only the coolant pump running. Standard heat mode is typically activated by
use of a toggle switch or optional timer. Since the coolant pump runs continuously
in this mode, it’s possible to accumulate a high number of coolant pump
operating hours vs. heater run hours when used with the engine running. Use of
supplemental mode is recommended if the heater is going to be used with the
engine running). Please refer to the wiring diagrams on page 2-21 and page 2-23.
Supplemental Mode
(Engine RUNNING) (Optional add in harness needed)
This mode is generally used to help heat the engine and passenger compartment
all year round. This mode is typically automatically enabled any time the
engine is running.
When heat is not required, the PROHEAT puts itself into supplemental standby,
shutting off the coolant pump, thereby avoiding additional run hours on the
pump. This is ideal for transit and coach applications.
To simplify heater operation, this function is fully automatic and invisible to the
operator. The PROHEAT receives a signal that the engine is running, and then
monitors the coolant temperature via a built-in sensor. If the coolant temperature
at the PROHEAT is below 150°F (65°C) the coolant pump is activated for 30
seconds. This causes coolant in the engine to be circulated through the PROHEAT.
If after 30 seconds the coolant temperature is above 150°F (65°C), the
PROHEAT will turn off the coolant pump and return to supplemental standby. If
the coolant temperature remains below 150°F (65°C), the PROHEAT will
operate and continue to supply heat to the system until the coolant temperature
reaches 185°F (85°C). The PROHEAT then shuts itself off, returns to
supplemental standby, deactivates the coolant pump and waits for the coolant
temperature to fall below 150°F (65°C), and the cycle is repeated.
The PROHEAT switches off when the engine stops so that the heater can’t be
accidentally left running overnight.
Supplemental heat mode has priority over the preheat mode and will cause
the preheat mode to drop out.
Please refer to the wiring diagram on page 2-25.
Supplemental Max Heat Feature (Optional add in harness & programing needed)
• To use this feature one of the I/O’s must be reprogrammed and the
supplemental mode must also be enabled, the cycle on/off temperature
range shifts up to between 170–190°F (77–88°C) to push the average
coolant temperature higher.
• This mode is useful for Tier 4 engines to help maintain higher engine
temperatures to reduce emissions and resulting regens, or when more heat
is needed such as high HVAC demands.
Please contact Proheat if you wish to use this feature.
Supplemental Priority Feature (Optional add in harness & programing needed)

To use this feature one of the I/O’s must be reprogrammed and the
supplemental mode must also be enabled, when active this gives priority to
supplemental mode over standard mode. When both standard and
supplemental modes are active, the heater will run in supplemental mode.
Preheat Mode (Engine off) (Optional add in harness needed)

Preheating the engine coolant is often essential to start engines in cold weather.
And since much of an engine’s wear occurs during cold start-ups, preheating
also reduces the wear and contributes to longer engine life and reduced
operating costs.
The preheat mode is usually activated an hour or so before starting the engine
using a momentary contact switch. The PROHEAT then runs in a mode similar to
standard heat mode, heating the coolant, which is circulated through the
engine block. The advantage of this mode is it’s switched off automatically.
No operator input is required. The PROHEAT has a built-in time-out feature to
prevent the heater from running indefinitely. The PROHEAT will switch itself off
after 90 minutes of operation. Starting the engine will also cause the preheat
mode to end (if supplemental mode is wired). To manually end preheat mode,
simply press the momentary contact switch again.
Anti-freeze Heating Mode (Battery Save Mode) (Optional add in harness needed)
The anti-freeze heating mode is designed to minimize battery consumption
and keep the coolant system warm or from freezing over a longer period of
time such as a weekend. Anti-freeze mode is generally activated by a toggle
switch. This mode is similar to the supplemental mode and only runs the
coolant pump while heating and checking the temperature during the pre-run
cycle. The difference is that when the heater is in standby (coolant pump off)
the coolant pump is run every 20 minutes to sample the system coolant
temperature to ensure the coolant temperature is maintained throughout the
system. In Anti-freeze mode the coolant temperature will be maintained between
41°F and 60°F (5°C and 20°C).
When Anti- freeze mode is enabled and another heating mode becomes active
it will override Anti-freeze heating mode but will not cancel it. Once the other
heating mode is turned off the heater will return to Anti-freeze heating mode.

Global Low Temperature Feature (Optional add in harness & programing needed)
To use this feature one of the I/O’s must be reprogrammed and a heating mode
needs to be enabled. This feature shifts all the cycle on/off temperature of
all operating modes (Preheat, Standard and Supplemental) down to between
73–108°F (40–60°C) so the overall average coolant temperature is lower.
This shift saves fuel and battery power over a longer period of time as well as
reducing heater maintenance due to sooting up.
The X30 Switch/Control harness comes pre wired to run the heater in Stan-
dard mode with the included toggle switch or the optional T-II Timer.
For additional features or operating modes an add in harness kit is needed.

See section 2.6.7 for optional connections.

2.8 FIRST TIME STARTUP
1. Do not apply power to Proheat at this time.
2. Inspect the entire installation for:
• loose bolts
• loose hoses and hose clamps
• loose wires and wire connections
• kinked or pinched hoses or wires
• battery connection for correct polarity, and
• coolant supply and return location on the engine
3. Fill the vehicle cooling system with coolant as per owner’s manual or
engine manufacturer’s recommendations.
4. Place dash heater control in the full “HOT” position. Turn air conditioning
“OFF.”
NOTE: If shut-off valves are installed, make sure they are fully “OPEN.”
5. Start the vehicle engine and run it at a fast idle for 5 to 10 minutes to purge
air from the heater and coolant system. While the engine is running:
• make sure the coolant is flowing freely
• inspect hoses and fittings for leaks
• check the coolant level in the radiator and add coolant as necessary
For installations without a engine ensure the coolant pump is flooded
prior starting the Proheat for the first time.
6. Shut the engine “OFF.”

7. Connect the power harness. The LED will Flash once, GREEN then RED
and all segments of the digital display will flash once on the PCM
followed by the configuration code number and then go blank. This
indicates that power has been supplied. See page 4-2 for more information.
8. Start the PROHEAT heater using the ON/OFF switch. The indicator lamp
should be lit with a solid red light. Go to the heater and observe its operation.
Test preheat and supplemental mode operation if equipped. Refer to page
3-7 for more information.
Sequence of Events:
• Coolant temperature must be less than 150˚F (65˚C).
• “ON” light on PCM should be lit.
• You should hear the coolant pump, blower, and compressor start.
• The spark will stop after 60 seconds and the heater will continue
to run.
NOTE: If the indicator lamp in the ON/OFF switch flashes upon initial
startup – WAIT. The heater will attempt a restart in 3 minutes.
In some cases it takes longer for the fuel pump to prime the empty fuel
lines during the initial start. This is usually the case if the fuel lines are
long (it may take a few restarts). If the light continues to flash after the
restart, then there is a problem. See Troubleshooting & Repair Manual.

9. Once the heater is started it will continue to run until the coolant
temperature reaches 185˚F (85˚C) at heater outlet, then it will cycle off.
NOTE: The vehicle dash temperature gauge may read significantly less
depending on the location of the sender unit on the engine.
Sequence of Events for Cycle Off
a) Fuel pump and compressor shut off.
b) The blower will run for 3 minutes on Cool Down (Purge) cycle then
shut “OFF.”
c) The water pump will continue to run.
10. The heater will cycle on when the coolant temperature falls below 150˚F
(65˚C) at heater outlet, as long as the ON/OFF switch is left “ON.”
11. If the vehicle has been equipped with the sleeper heat option then:
a) Adjust the PROHEAT sleeper thermostat to highest heat position.
b) The sleeper heat exchanger fan will start blowing warm air.
12. Switch the ON/OFF switch to “OFF.” The red light will go out and the

Figure 3-1. PROHEAT X30 Heater
1. Fuel Supply Pump A positive displacement, gerotor gear-type pump that draws fuel from the
vehicle tank and supplies it to the fuel valve. The pump is magnetically
driven from the compressor motor. The fuel is filtered at the fuel pump inlet.
Pressure is regulated by means of an internal relief valve.
2. Fuel Valve Electronically meters fuel flow that is allowed to pass onto the nozzle.
3. Air Compressor A diaphragm type compressor supplies air to the fuel nozzle.
4. Ignition Module A spark type ignition coil supplies high voltage to the ignition electrodes.
5. Coolant Pump Circulates the engine coolant. An impeller style pump is used because of
its low current draw and free flow during engine operation. IT IS NOT SELF-
PRIMING. The pump must be flooded and the system must be purged of all
air for it to operate. (DO NOT run dry.)
The PCM utilizes a microprocessor to monitor operating conditions and control

outputs to the motors and sensors. It has powerful diagnostics to assist in
troubleshooting. One of the key features is the diagnostic display on the front

7. Fuel Nozzle An air/fuel aspirating-type spray nozzle is located inside the burner head.
The compressed air flows through the nozzle at high speed creating a venturi
effect. This siphons fuel from the fuel valve and combines it with the air,
creating an extremely fine mist that is sprayed out of the nozzle into the
combustion chamber.
8. Combustion Air Blower Uses an impeller-type fan to supply the combustion air at low pressure. It is
also used to cool and Cool Down (Purge) the combustion chamber during the
shut-down sequence.
9. Heat Exchanger Coolant is circulated through the heat exchanger via the inlet and outlet ports.
Heat is transferred from the heat exchanger through the inner wall of the
exchanger into the coolant. The exhaust gases are directed out through the
exhaust port.
10. Ignition Electrode The electrode is located near the nozzle just out of the air/fuel mixture path.
During the ignition sequence the spark jumps the gap between the electrodes,
igniting the air/fuel mixture, and is then turned off. Spark duration is up to
60 seconds.

11. Dual Mode Outlet Measures the coolant temperature near the outlet port of the heat exchanger
Temperature Sensor and sends this information to the PCM. The dual mode sensor contains both
digital and analog sensing elements for more accurate and reliable measurements.
The sensor also touches the inner heat exchanger surface to measure the heat
exchanger temperature for an overheat condition.

3.2 THEORY OF OPERATION
There are five basic systems within the PROHEAT.
1. Air Compressor The purpose of the air compressor is to deliver a metered amount of clean
compressed air to the nozzle.
As the compressor motor turns, it drives a diaphragm type compressor. The
compressor draws fresh air through an air filter located on the top of the
compressor. It is then compressed and delivered to the nozzle in the burner
head via internal passages.
2. Fuel Supply System The purpose of the fuel supply system is to deliver clean, air-free fuel to the
fuel valve.
As the compressor motor turns, it magnetically drives a positive displacement
gerotor type pump. The fuel pump draws (under a vacuum) fuel from the fuel
tank through the fuel line. The fuel then enters the sintered fuel filter located
above the fuel inlet fitting on the bottom of the pump. The fuel then enters the fuel
pumpand is pressurized. This pressure is controlled via the fuel pump relief
valve. The fuel then enters the fuel control valve.
The fuel control valve is electrically controlled by the PCM and meters the fuel
pressure and flow that is allowed to pass onto the nozzle. The fuel is now
drawn from the fuel control valve via the low pressure created by the nozzle.
3. Fuel Control System The purpose of the fuel control system is to maintain optimal combustion
(Feedback) chamber conditions.
An oxygen sensor located in the exhaust outlet of the X30 provides continuous
feedback to the PCM. The PCM uses this data to continuously meter the fuel/air
ratio in the combustion chamber by way of the electronic fuel control valve.
The fuel is always matched to the available oxygen in the combustion chamber.
4. Nozzle The purpose of the nozzle is to atomize the fuel.

The compressed air (by way of the compressor’s internal passage) travels over
the body of the nozzle. As it reaches the end of the nozzle, it passes through a
restriction. This creates a negative pressure or venturi effect. This negative
pressure extends back through the center of the nozzle all the way to the fuel
valve. This negative pressure causes the available fuel to be siphoned from
the fuel valve. The compressed air and fuel are then mixed at the end of the
nozzle into a very fine mist of fuel/air that is sprayed into the combustion
chamber in the shape of a cone.
NOTE: The compressed air flowing over the nozzle is not sufficient for clean
combustion.
5. Combustion Air The purpose of the combustion system is to deliver a metered amount of air
System to the combustion tube (chamber). This provides the majority of the air needed
to combust the atomized fuel/air mist created by the nozzle, and to cool the
combustion chamber when the heater cycles off.
As the blower motor turns, it directly drives the combustion air blower blade.
The combustion air is not filtered, so it needs to come from a clean area.
A snorkel hose is sometimes used to draw air from a clean source. The air is
then directed into the combustion tube. The fan end casting is shaped in such
a way that it causes the air to swirl into the combustion tube. The swirling air
then mixes with the atomized fuel/air cone from the nozzle. Once lit, this
creates an intense flame in the combustion tube. The hot gases then reach

the end of the combustion tube and make a 180-degree turn to enter the heat
exchanger. The heat exchanger has fins that transfer the heat to the coolant
that flows around the heat exchanger. The gases enter the exhaust system
and are read by the oxygen sensor, then are directed away from the vehicle.
All five systems must work together to produce safe, smoke-free operation of
Examples: the PROHEAT. It is important for the service technician to understand the five
systems and how a change in one system can result in improper combustion.
A restriction in the amount of air through the combustion chamber (restricted air
intake, dirty heat exchanger plugged exhaust) could result in a rich air/fuel
mixture. The Oxygen sensor will detect the lack of oxygen and the PCM will
adjust the blower speed and fuel valve position to prevent a rich air/fuel
mixture and possibly black smoke from the exhaust.
A restriction in the fuel line, filter, or nozzle fuel passage will reduce the
atomized fuel/air flow into the combustion tube. The Oxygen sensor will detect
the increase of oxygen and the PCM will adjust the blower speed and fuel
valve position to prevent a lean air/fuel mixture and possibly gray/white
smoke from the exhaust.

2. Operational problems may not be identified with a blinking diagnostic code
(e.g., blown fuse, smoking exhaust, backfiring, or low heat output. Go to
page 4-34.)
4.0.1 TROUBLESHOOTING A PROBLEM

1. Locate the PROHEAT, remove the enclosure lid if equipped and visually
check for any problems with wiring harnesses, fuel leaks, coolant leaks,
exhaust pipe damage, and environmental conditions.
2. Remove the cover of the PROHEAT Control Module (PCM) and inspect the
display for the error code.
3. If no code is indicated, turn the PROHEAT off and then on again using the
existing operational switches or timer.
4. Let the PROHEAT attempt to start and/or operate. Observe the operation.
NOTE: The PROHEAT will always attempt to start twice, as long as the coolant
temperature is below 150°F (65°C). If a fault is detected it will shut down, go
through a Cool Down (Purge) and attempt a second start. After both attempts
to start or operate, the PCM will display a code and the switch, timer red
manual light, or OEM indicator (installation options) will blink.
• After two consecutive start attempts, the PROHEAT will not attempt to
start again and goes into a hold state. In the hold state, the switch, Timer
red manual light, or OEM indicator light (installation options) will blink
continuously. The PROHEAT will try again once the switch is turned “OFF”
and then “ON” again.
• If the PROHEAT runs but is not performing or operating correctly, consult
the Operational Problems, Section 4.2 on page 4-34.

4.1.3 EXAMPLE PROHEAT BEHAVIOR ERROR – CODE 01-1
The following is an example of an X30 PROHEAT behavior during an error. The
following example shows the sequence of events when the PROHEAT is switched
“ON” in the standard mode (similar for other modes). This sequence of events
occurs for Codes 01 through 18. Codes 19 through 26 do not put the heater
into Cool Down (Purge) mode or shut down the PROHEAT. Rather, the PROHEAT
reports the error and continues to run.

2. Pre-check The PCM performs a short diagnostic cycle. This takes several seconds
checking components for proper ranges, checking for the presence of a flame,
short-circuits and open circuits. If there are no errors indicated, the PROHEAT
goes to pre-ignition.
ON SOLID GREEN
3. Pre-ignition The Fuel Valve starts to cycle, followed by the heated Oxygen sensor warm-up
phase. The Blower starts to turn followed by the compressor and fuel pump.
BLINKING RED
5. Error If the oxygen sensor does not detect a flame in 60 seconds after entering

As shown in figure 4-10, when the compressor/fuel pump motor is on, fuel is
drawn from the tank through the fuel pump and pressurizes the high pressure
side of the fuel valve. The fuel valve then meters the fuel available to the
nozzle. Compressed air flowing through the nozzle creates a venturi or suction
effect that siphons fuel from the fuel valve.

3 Coolant Indicates that the coolant temperature in the PROHEAT reached 185˚F (85˚C)
Flow within 60 seconds from the beginning of ignition. There is coolant in the
system but its flow rate is too low.
ALTERNATES
An in-line flow indicator (see figure 4-24) is a valuable troubleshooting tool used to:
1. Check the coolant flow and direction.
2. Check for air in the system.
3. Check for restrictions caused by the truck systems such as
shuttle valves, manual valves, air operated valves.
The coolant flow indicator shown in figure 4-24 is a service tool used to
troubleshoot and test for possible flow and air problems in the coolant flow
path. Flow direction during heater operation or during engine operation can
then be observed.
Check: Coolant Flow

FLOW 1. Coolant Lines: For restrictions and blockages
Are clamps tight?
2. Shut-off Valves: Ensure that shut-off valves are open and
functioning properly.
3. Fittings: Recommend 1/2” NPT x 3/4” Hose Barb. Minimum
size is 1/2” NPT x 5/8” Hose Barb. Avoid using 90˚ fittings
where possible.
4. Coolant Flow Direction: The PROHEAT must be plumbed so

4.2 OPERATIONAL PROBLEMS WITH
NO CODES DISPLAYED
This section describes heater operational problems that are not specifically
described in the function or component diagnostic section.
4.2.1 COMPLAINT: Smoking exhaust/smelly exhaust fumes

Black Smoke = Too much fuel for the amount of combustion air.
Check • Is the Combustion air restricted?
• Do you have the correct nozzle?
NOTICE • Is the compressor air pressure correct?
• Is the 4-20 faulty (leaking internally)?
The heater may puff smoke on start • Is the O2 sensor faulty?
up/shut down for a few seconds.
Normal combustion in full output Gray/White Smoke = incomplete combustion of the fuel (bad atomization).
(ignition off) should be smoke free. • Heater flooded with raw fuel will smoke heavily as it vaporize away. Heater
can take up to 10 minutes of running to clear a flood and stop smoking.
Check • Is it actually smoke or steam?

• Is there air in the fuel?
• Is the heat exchanger and exhaust flooded?
• Do you have the correct nozzle?
• Is the compressor air pressure correct?
• Is the fuel valve faulty (not opening fully)?
• Is the O2 sensor faulty?
4.2.2 COMPLAINT: Low heat output

If the heater appears to be functioning properly but the driver complains of
low heat, this is often indicative of a coolant flow restriction. (See section on
Coolant Flow page 4-17).
4.2.3 COMPLAINT: Engine temperature gauge reads low

Depending on its location, the engine temperature sensor may not be directly
in the path of coolant flow from the heater. In these cases, the gauge may
read significantly lower than actual coolant temperature.
4.2.4 COMPLAINT: Backfiring

Backfiring occurs when there is air in the fuel supply lines.
Check • Fuel level in tank – is the pick-up submerged?

• Air leaks – are all the fuel line clamps tight?
• For severely restricted combustion air blockage at the blower inlet, in the
combustion chamber, or in the exhaust system.
• Fuel line ID wrong. Please ensure only the Proheat supplied fuel line is
used with the X30

5.0 MAINTENANCE
5.1 WEEKLY MAINTENANCE

Visually inspect the Proheat, mounting brackets, fuel line, harnesses, coolant
lines and exhaust system for damage, loose parts and leakage.
Run the Proheat a minimum of once a week to keep new fuel in the heater’s
critical components.
5.2 ANNUAL MAINTENANCE

Your PROHEAT has been designed to operate with a minimum of maintenance. To
ensure the efficient operation of your heater an annual maintenance tune-up
is strongly recommended to be performed each year.
Proper maintenance will result in the following benefits:
NOTICE
• Maximum heat transfer to the coolant
A higher duty cycle may require a
• Minimum battery power draw
more frequent maintenance schedule,
such as 2 or 3 times per year. • Long-term cost savings
• Increased reliability
Check the system annually before each heating season. There are several
maintenance procedures you can perform to keep your heater in service. Read
this section of the manual carefully.
Always return to your Authorized PROHEAT Dealer for major maintenance.
Your PROHEAT Dealer has the specialized equipment necessary to keep your
